4.00 am Birds start singing outside.

4.30 am Give up trying to get back to sleep as a bad job.

4.31 am Give myself a horror in the mirror.

5.00 am Start shuffling around the mounds of paper on my desk.

8 or 9 am, maybe 10 Break for breakfast

an hour later Back at it

some hour mid-afternoon Break for lunch

30 min later Back at it

sometime between 6pm and 9pm Order in Chinese

11pm to 1am Make sure all the mounds of paper are back in their starting places for the next day.

I don't suppose Mandy Moore is on any of those trains and buses?

If you were here in the US it would just be car and no social possibilities at all!

So, sylvester, you spend about £2 - £10 on bus and train whereas you could just spend about 10.2p per-mile in a car...

...very sensible :rolleyes:

I think it would work out much more than 10.2p per mile, if you take in maintenance costs, and of course ridiculous insurance costs for a 19 year old on anything more powerful than a Reliant Robin.

So it takes you almost 2½ hours to get home after work?? WOW!!!!! Guess I am lucky. From my home to work is 4 miles, no traffic signals, no stops, no turns. Can make it home from work in 7-8 minutes, easily. I can almost drive to work with my eyes closed. Actually, I did for awhile, when I got sick last year, and my blood-sugar levels peaked so high that the pressure on my retinas caused temporary blindness (for about 2 weeks). Looking back, it is a wonder that I didn't kill myself (or someone else).

Yes due to connections and whatnot it takes longer to get home than it does to get there... now if i could catch the 1.30pm train i'd be home by 2.30pm.

But alas no they won't let me.

The 2.30's the worst... cos i don't have a connection to that one so when it crawls into Barnsley at 3.15 (as the 3.15 bus leaves)... i have to wait till 4.30 for another bus.

You also forgot to add on carparking cost in the multistory carpark... that's if you can get a place in the first pl... and if your car's still there by the time you go back... :D
